Error description

• Tivoli Storage Manager Backup/Archive Client for Windows stores
  a new version of the resident file when the stub file should be
  stored under the following conditions:

  - incremental backup with option journal based backup (JBB)
  enabled
  - HSM for Windows migrated files are stored on tape or
  sequential access disk.
  
  Affected Products:
  Tivoli Storage Manager Client for Windows versions
  7.1.0.0 - 7.1.1.0
  
  Customer/L2 diagnostics:
  Check HSM for Windows log file

Local fix

• No local fix.
  Workaround until fix is applied:
  Stop TSM Journal Service and run incremental backups without
  the TSM Journal Service.

  case.
